I also find that if I want to do any kind of promo (like at Christmas or Mother’s Day) it helps to know your customer base…. 85% of my sales are woman buying gifts for other people.
Because of this fact the promo that actually works best in my shop is when I offer a free gift, like a pair of earrings, when the buyer spends more than a set amount. I think this works well because they were planning on spending the money to buy the gift for their loved one anyhow… and then they get a nice gift to keep for themselves! Sometimes it is just that little deciding factor

I think that part of this post is missing, which is a shame because I’m sure it will be helpful. Perhaps someone can make it right please?

I agree, people don’t usually start a post with “I also find…”
It may have been copied directly from the forum thread, but it seems out of place by itself.
Yuppers, I second (or third) that! Free gifting is a great idea, but would love to know the others, too!
Great idea, Thanks New Hope Beading!Love that little bird pendant.
Hi all
Hope that helps !
LOL yes you are right… it appears Tim has taken an old forum post of mine and shared it with you along with some picture. Thanks Tim for featuring me (and note to self: always mind your P’s and Q’s in forums lol)
I don’t think I was saying anything Earth shattering leading into that. If memory serves me correctly someone had asked if I found free shipping to be useful and I said for me I did not find it that useful…. and then the important part is there. I just came across this today in goggle 2 months later or I would have address your questions sooner
